Many Other Latins Fed Up With Dade's Cubans

OTHER VIEWPOINTS: U.S. CUBAN POLICY

May 16, 1995

My son-in-law is Cuban, most of my friends are Cubans, and all, without exception, know English and have accepted the United States as their new motherland. In the past 10 years have visited more than 5,000 business accounts - mostly Latins (mostly Cubans, but many Colombians, Mexicans, Nicaraguans, Venezuelans, Guatemalans, Puerto Ricans, Brazilians and so on). A good 75 to 80 percent of these Latin businessmen are fed up with Dade County's Cubans who behave like spoiled children. They have refused to learn English. They have refused to learn our culture or at least to meet us half way.The two most prominent Cuban radio stations, both in Dade County, have been just short of inciting riots through misinformation.
